Time for seedlings!!! Can you guess them all before you check the alt text?

Hydroponic spinach is going well after a lot of babying.

The tatsoi, poblanos, and pumpkins are doing good too.

A single musk melon is... problematic, which is why I direct sowed about a dozen the other day. Let's hope for at least one mate.

It's pouring rain outside. Forecast calls for more rains tomorrow. My rain barrels & buckets will be filled well. Sunshine returns on Wednesday.
I'll thinning out this large pot, full of mixed carrots & some self seeded tomatoes, on Wednesday morning before going to work. I wasn't expecting that many carrot seeds to germinate. I used a bag of 3 year old seeds to sow this pot.
I grow all my root vegetables in big pots for easier harvesting. All my yams & potatoes are growing out of large felted bags. I have beetroot & turnips growing together out of a large Rubbermaid bin.

Major work in the #garden today. #Tomato #seedlings were late getting started, so they are just now getting into big pots. #Tropical plants like #dahlias, #mandevilla and #bouganvillea are finally in their #summer pots, mulched and fertilized. Our potted #JapaneseMaple arboretum is glowing. The Night-blooming Cereus, Princess of the Night #Cactus is out, too. Time to rest and enjoy the view.

Not even the seedling trays are safe. ๐ŸŒ

I thought keeping the courgette (*Cucurbita pepo*) seedlings in pots would buy them some time before facing the garden's slug population โ€” apparently not. This little snail found its way in anyway and made itself very comfortable on a freshly sprouted leaf. You have to admire the determination, if nothing else.

The eternal battle between gardener and gastropod continues. Round one to the snail.

Zelfs de kweekpotjes zijn niet veilig. ๐ŸŒ

Ik dacht dat de courgette (*Cucurbita pepo*) zaailingen in potten nog even gespaard zouden blijven van de slakkenpopulatie in de tuin โ€” blijkbaar niet. Dit kleine slakje vond toch zijn weg naar binnen en maakte het zich bijzonder comfortabel op een pas ontkiemd blaadje. Je moet de vastberadenheid bewonderen, al bij al.

De eeuwige strijd tussen tuinier en gastropode gaat verder. Ronde รฉรฉn voor de slak.

The sunflowers are leaving the nest! ๐ŸŒป

A first batch of sunflower seedlings (*Helianthus annuus*) has been hardened off and planted out into the open ground. The first two varieties to make it outside this year are 'Giant Double' and 'Moonwalker' โ€” one a classic towering yellow giant, the other a more elegant pale yellow with a dark centre. More varieties are still waiting their turn!

The labels are in place, the soil is freshly turned, and now it's up to the sun to do its work. Excited to see how tall these will get this summer!

De zonnebloemen verlaten het nest! ๐ŸŒป

Een eerste reeks zonnebloem zaailingen (*Helianthus annuus*) is afgehard en de volle grond ingegaan. De eerste twee variรซteiten die dit jaar buiten mogen zijn 'Giant Double' en 'Moonwalker' โ€” de ene een klassieke hoge gele reus, de andere een elegantere bleekgele met donker hart. Meer variรซteiten wachten nog op hun beurt!

De labels staan erbij, de grond is fris omgespit, en nu is het aan de zon om haar werk te doen. Benieuwd hoe hoog ze deze zomer gaan geraken!

I finished my gardening tasks just before raindrops came. Got most of my thinning done. Got all the cucumbers & cantaloupe seedlings repotted. Transplanted more salad greens & peas.

Added my perlite/vermiculite mixture & mixed it deep into soil in pots before transplanting/repotting. I scattered some over my soil remediation areas too.

Time to rest a bit before dinner.

Countryside and Garden โ€“ the first day of May 9th, the weather cooperated!

Countryside and Garden. The time has come, May 9th, a holiday. The weather is fine. Yes, this time there were no frosts in May. And it was quite warm that day. I went for the first time this year. To start a new season. Countryside season 2026
